Switzerland 10-Day Trips & Itineraries

Caroline took an outline of a trip we wanted to take to Switzerland and completely filled it in for us from beginning to end.

The itinerary details were impeccable, the optional activities were extremely helpful.

All of our vouchers were provided so ticketing for trains and gondolas was taken care of.

Hotel check-in went seamlessly.

In addition, Caroline was an absolute delight to work with. She truly seemed to care that my son and I had the trip of a lifetime.

I would recommend kimkim And Caroline to anyone with my highest confidence.

Wow, just wow! My Husband and I travel quite a bit and are normally our own trip planners even when we go to other countries. This time we were visiting two countries in Europe, which was Switzerland and Austria, and I had just happened to come across kimkim.com and was tossing around the idea of using a travel specialist. I made an inquiry and was met with a very nice person Clemens! We decided after a few messages that we would just let him see what he could come up with for us and to our surprise, he had made a very detailed travel plan through both countries. And we had our initial video call and was quite impressed with his personality and his knowledge of both countries and how personal he was. He listened to what we were wanting and what was important to us and the plan was set into motion, so we hit the go button! Once we got our plan, we decided there was a couple of things we wanted to change, which was no problem. It didn’t feel like it was an aggravation for them. It just seemed that they were there to really, please us and give us a vacation worth remembering! about a week to 10 days before we left there was another video phone call to go through every last detail of our trip and everything was explained to me, and every minute detail from our pick up from the airport, to directions to bus stations times and train tickets, bus tickets, and when I mean, detailed, it was very detailed and step-by-step walk-through. It was quite lovely to have the app to refer to at any moment that we needed it. I downloaded the what’s app and could stay in connection with them at all times. There was only one hiccup in our plans which was one hotel that wasn’t already paid for when we were checking out and all I had to do is pick up the phone and call kimkim on WhatsApp and they immediately fixed the situation! And another time one of our trains was switched to a different train. I called. They immediately picked up and that was also fixed ASAP! As I said before, we have never used a travel agent or specialist and was a little bit nervous about doing it, but I after using kimkim will definitely be using them again! Your plans are light out before you like a well oiled machine! Clemens and his entire team were exceptional, professional, and very kind. If you have never like us, use a travel specialist before I highly recommend using them. I forgot to mention that we traveled first to Switzerland and then onto Austria! The stress that this team took away from me while traveling into these two countries was well worth the price which we thought was very reasonable. we were given suggestions on restaurants things to do. Tickets were put into motion and placed for us and it was just a seamless vacation! The beauty that we saw with the recommendations and the food that we ate was incredible! They will even give you suggestions on what to wear on these excursions! I cannot express to you, how pleased We were and are with this entire experience with this company. To Clemens and his team that were involved, thank you so much for helping us plan an incredible vacation!

Jaz in the City Vienna

Oh my goodness, I cannot say enough about this hotel! The breakfast was insane! The staff were so precious! I am now called Mom by some of the girls there that work in the hotel! Every time we would walk in the door, their faces would light up and we just had a great time here! Made lifelong friends that when they come to America, they wanna come stay with me! Great rooftop bar and food and it felt like they were family by the time we left! Even the bar and restaurant downstairs is incredible! I actually cried just a little bit before I left this one! I made a lot of connections there!

Hotel Restaurant Hirschen

This hotel was very old and beautiful just the way it was described! It was family owned, and we got to know the staff and everyone there and we have later found out that the restaurant is pretty famous. Its inside of this hotel and the food was incredible! The staff were so personable and made friends along the way here.

Paragliding in Salzburg

Salzburg

We also did not get to do this excursion. We had called kimkim and they were more than willing to set up this experience for us, but unfortunately, it just did not work out on our end, but we watched so many of these and it looked like an incredible experience in My Husband really wanted to do it. It just didn’t work out for us to be able to do it.

Tip based Walking Tour by Prime Tours - Highlights of Vienna

Vienna

I cannot write this one because we did not attend. We were very tired from traveling and just wanted to be at the hotel and had dinner in that night. At the rooftop bar. I really wanted to do it and probably should have but just was exhausted.

Final Full Day in Vienna with a night of glamour & grandeur at the Vienna State Opera 🎼

Vienna

The opera was very good, it was our last night. I did leave early only because I was very swollen lol, at this point, we had probably walked 80 miles in two weeksand I just could not sit any longer but well worth going. Would like to have seen a little bit of a more traditional opera, but it was a beautiful building.

We loved working with Clothilde! She had a fantastic ability to sense exactly the types of experiences and hotels we were looking for. Her choices of smaller boutique hotels (Ameron in Lucern, Eiger Mountain and Soul Resort in Grindlewald, Zermama in Zermatt, and Grand Hotel Suisse in Montreux) were perfect in terms of location, comfort and ambience. This was a previously scheduled trip that we had to postpone for medical reasons and she tweaked our itinerary to fit in a panoramic train ride, and give us an extra night in Montreux which we loved. Chlothilde always responded to our questions promptly and her wonderful directions for train travel allowed us to move around Switzerland between towns, travel to excursions, and move around on our own with confidence. She is the best! All of our drivers and guides were terrific as well. George at Flying Wheels led a great ebike trek to Lauterbrunnen, and our afternoon with Mike at Gorgornat was tailored to our needs so that my husband managed to complete the hike despite recent back surgery. Our day with Emmanuel in Montreux was exceptional—all great choices! Thank you for a wonderful bucket-list vacation!

Activity Review

Cheese, chocolate and wine tour in Gruyeres!

Switzerland

Our guide Emmanuel was one of the best guides we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. The tour included a tour of a UNESCO site to see artisan cheese made by hand which we could then compare to a factory cheese production site The Cailler chocolate tour was very interactive and interesting . We also visited the Domaine du Daley winery with our host Felix who led a great tour of the winery cellars and provided excellent details of the wine production process during our tasting while seated on a beautiful terrace overlooking Lake Geneva. It was a great day!
